injury.

The more you use a chain the longer it becomes. It is therefore important to adjust the chain regularly to take up the slack.

Check the chain tension every time you refuel. NOTE! A new chain has a running-in period during which you should check the tension more frequently.

Tension the chain as tightly as possible, but not so tight that you cannot pull it round freely by hand.

•Loosen the bar nuts that hold the clutch cover/chain brake. Use the combination spanner.Then tighten the bar nuts by hand as tight as you can.
